Food Friday

binagol


Have you tried eating this before?

Our eldest sister arrived from the province a couple of days ago and she got us some of these ... binagol. I've had binagol since i was really young, but haven't gotten round to asking my mom it's ingredients. Did a bit of research and found out that it's a sweetened nutty taro pudding. The center is the sweetest part, where you'll find some peanuts and other soft sweet stuffs. Sometimes that's the part that gets eaten first. :)

This is actually sort of like soul food, for me. Just brings back all those memories which happened eons ago. ;p
*I couldn't eat all of that in just one sitting, though. Too sweet (and heavy in the belly) for me. That binagol is meant to be shared. ;)*

Want to play along? Then do leave a comment and tell me, or click here.

*will be posting Food Friday here until my other blog is up and running ... many thanks to everyone for being patient and understanding. :)

    I remember when I was young binagol is very sweet. As far as I know it was all sugar and thought made of sugar cane.
